The last of the Samberg stuff to be installed under the hood is the new bumpsteer correction kit. The kit is nice because it uses cotter pins on both ends of the stud—more peace of mind! The kit also includes steering rack spacers that allow raising the steering rack mount height if more correction is needed.

Removing the old tie rod ends from our RX-7, Howard showed us a neat time saving technique for popping stubborn tie rod ends out of the uprights—just give ‘em a quick pop with an air hammer and they fall right off! Voila, no more shredding your boots with a pickle fork or fumbling around with a puller!

 |
| The tie rod end of the Samberg bumpsteer correction kit uses spherical bearings. |
